EDSN 27.10.27        Sandino to Gen. Manuel Echeverría
 

 

General Manuel Echeverría, Camp No. 6.
 
General Echeverría.
 
I have already received notice from the boys and they say that they did not attack at 7 as ordered because they were in search of some people they had told them about.  They got there at 7 in the morning and at that time the battle began and it lasted only four hours.  We had no casualties, only one slightly wounded in the leg.  I have already given orders to reconcentrate here for rest.  Send me the paper I sent for you to copy, the manifesto where we say that only to a Liberal government will we surrender our arms.  I have an idea and I want to take advantage of it.
 
Patria y Libertad
 
/s/  A. C. Sandino
